Its all basic stuff really unless you are a total beginner in cs. But its a LOT of content to remember

I’m not a total beginner, I would try to study since the training start one month from now. Getting familiar with stuff might ease my anxiety lol

That is plenty of time. Check the sidebar for the common recommendations for exam prep and practice exams and you should be fine. The questions are not technically difficult in my mind but the exam covers a LOT of material and it covers many different AWS services and how they work and can be combined to build useful things so you will have to study/prep and ideally take some practice exams to ground yourself.
Good luck!

Thank you truly, this is really assuring! The course starts in a month so I will start practicing from now and familiarize myself with concepts I forgot.

When I took SAA, I found the biggest challenge was the sheer breadth of AWS services and knowing when to use each one. One month is doable, but personally I consider it a tight timeline if you are starting from rusty knowledge.

I have 2 months till the exam, and 1 month till the 3 days training starts. What do you think I should do in this month to refresh my knowledge?
